He said it...

Yup, Bush said this:
“I’ll be frank with you. I don’t spend a lot of time really worrying about short-term history,” he told Gibson. “I guess I don’t worry about long-term history, either, since I’m not going to be around to read it.”

So basically he is saying he could care less about what he screwed up because he'll be dead? What an ass. At least I have a small bit of comfort knowing we didn't vote for him, but wow...what an idiot.
